Crystal structure of 1-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-1H-imidazole

The crystal structure of the title compound, C15H20N2 or DippIm, is reported. At 106 (2) K, the molecule has monoclinic P21/c symmetry with four molecules in the unit cell. The imidazole ring is rotated 80.7 (1)° relative to the phenyl ring. Intermolecular stabilization primarily results from close...

description The crystal structure of the title compound, C15H20N2 or DippIm, is reported. At 106 (2) K, the molecule has monoclinic P21/c symmetry with four molecules in the unit cell. The imidazole ring is rotated 80.7 (1)° relative to the phenyl ring. Intermolecular stabilization primarily results from close contacts between the N atom at the 3-position on the imidazole ring and the C—H bond at the 4-position on the neighboring DippIm, with aryl–aryl distances outside of the accepted distance of 5 Å for π-stacking.
